Thorne sets down the coffees only to see Jacin not at his desk. The coffee was getting cold, so he shot his a text:
Thorne- Where are you? Coffee's getting cold
Jacin- Hold up. Met a girl!
Thorne- Ooh, Where!?
Jacin- Office lot #3, cute blond.
Thorne turns around only to spot the same blond hair as before. Thorne walks over to Jacin, who's sitting by Cress n one of those wheelie chairs.
"Cress, hey!" Thorne says with a wave.
"Thorne! Hi!"
"It looks like you've met my friend Jacin."
"And it looks like you've met my friend Thorne." Jacin says.
"Cress here was just telling me how she learned how to hack when she was just 7 years old."
"Hey you guys, want cupcakes?" Cress asks.
"Sure, I guess." Thorne and Jacin say.
Cress brings out a box filled with cupcakes. Thorne, Jacin, and Cress all grab cupcakes from the box. They all eat their cupcakes. Cress looks adorable eating them. Her face scrunches up in this awfully cute way. Thorne catches a small smudge of cream on the corner of her lip. He was about to rub it off when anther hand comes up instead. Jacin's hand slowly rubs off the bit of frosting on her lip.
Something wrong happens to Thorne's stomach. It twists at the look on Cress's face as Jacin rubs the frosting of her lip. They both look up at each other and Jacin flat out goes "Hey, Cress will you go out on a… a date with me, maybe."
Thorne stomach hurts. Something is wrong, very wrong.
